Impending MI codes out to 411.1, same as ACS or unstable angina. See CC2Q2001.

What are you seeing clinically?

Attached is the information sheet I created to help our Coders and CDI
staff identify ATN.
Hope it is helpful.

Does anyone have any helpful hints for getting the etiology of AKI
documented in the medical record?

Now that AKI was downgraded from a MCC to a CC I’m struggling to
understand what clinical indicators to look for regarding etiology.

I know that AKI due to Acute Tubular Necrosis (ATN) is a MCC. Does
anyone know what other forms of AKI are considered MCCs?

What indicators do you look for when querying for AKI and the etiology?
For example what indicators indicate a patient may have ATN?

I know it’s not all about CCs and MCCs but getting a more complete
picture of the patient’s true medical conditions.

Any suggestions or query forms you would like to share would be
appreciated.



Thank you!
